finally!!! masasabi ko na talangang i've lost 4lbs!!! my weighing scale seemed to be undecided for the past days... hehehe but now it constantly gives me 4-5lbs off! hehehe i've also tried to weigh in from the scale where i get my preggy weight monthly and then from another scale... and they're all consistent!

and wait.. there's more! uulitin ko i dropped 4lbs... and i also lost 2inches off the belly button part (mali atang eto ang mineasure ko for the waist) and 4inches off the hip part!!!

i can scream my heart out now... right??? right??? hehehe but still looooong way to go! i'm supposed to lose 10-12lbs/month until March 31... still keeping my fingers crossed and my sense of discipline... i hope i won't lose it.... :-) 45days to go!!!

i just have to add this pic... i wasn't able to capture how grand this actually look like.... im a clouds and stars and sky person, small things like this makes me stop and breath it in.... spent 6minutes tuloy to finish one round instead of just 3 hehehe

random shots from that afternoon.... wearing Magdalo running jersey, gift ni kuya sa akin, ke leo, pao, mamang and papang. hope we can wear it all at the same time and have photos taken hihihi :D mine's a bit tight pa and pao's really big pa sa kanya.... salamat kuyapots, chuchay, jewel and alyn!!!

we found doc JP!!! our new jogging buddy until the 29th right?

and kaladkarin mam nads and edsel.... kaya natin to!!! it's nice to have more of us running/walking.... hope mam june and mam jhi can join us soon too!

the challenge: lose 35lbs and 12inches (worth of waist) in only 90days!!!

was able to do something like this back in 2008... but that was just losing my baby fat (plus the fat from all the sitting at work, starbucks fraps, and coke with flat tops merienda!)... this time i guess it'll be harder... well that's what most people say, its more difficult to lose pregnancy accumulated fats... i hope it won't be that stubborn for me... :-)

my only fave cardio: jog and walk!!! i've considered going to the gym but an enclosed space really is not for me... and iv lost 30lbs back in 2008 because of this, and some more instances before before... so since im sure that this will work for me, i will definitely be sticking with it now... less cost, more fresh air(and people watching)... total workout!

herbalife formula 1. only because i've tried this last year already (before i found out i was pregnant), i lost a few pounds even without exercise...and only because iv seen my sis went from preggy fat to slim again because of this... hehehe it's a bit expensive though, but will just be using during my 90-day challenge. i replace my breakfasts and dinners with this and only eat during lunch (anything but without rice!!!)... so far im on the right track except for dinners, aside from taking this i think im making a cheat by eating a few ulam (mostly fish and veggies) just to have dinner with the family... :D

and this! yeap! Del Monte's Fit and Right! (no they do not sponsor this blog... but *hint hint* hehehe)... this helped me lose the 30lbs in 3months back in 2008... read online that 500grams of L-carnitine is helpful when trying to lose weight, they help you burn your fats instead of muscles during workouts... been taking 2 bottles a day before, but now will just be taking 1, as my afternoon snack and in prep for the jog after work.

and then this one... an Alkaline ionizer... i have not read anything about alkalines yet and their effect on weight loss (if there's any), but since my mom gave me this for christmas and had been telling me that this can help remove that bilbil, might as well include this in my tools for the 90day challenge... if it works or not i won't be able to tell anymore hehehe, but then it wouldn't hurt to try, malay nga natin effective nga!!!

January 2's supposed to be the start of my 3month papayat program... well i started with the meal supplement already in the morning, had mami only for lunch (and well, ok a few lasagna from mam nadie! hehehe) but failed to stop myself from binging during dinner... so much for first days haha!it was my highschool girlfriends' get together so i gave in... :D

but guess what! day2's a good progress... :D i guess i had less than 1500calories worth of food... yipee!!! the hardest part, which is to start, had been conquered!!! double yipee!!! now i just need to get my ass moving... am having my fingers crossed, hope the planned jog with hubby tomorrow will push thru!

three months post-partum and im still 30lbs over my pre-pregnancy weight... i vowed not to buy new clothes at my current size... i self-imposed a shopping ban for clothes (yep clothes only, i can still get myself new shoes!!! *grins**) and a no haircut policy until im back at 130lbs... :D goodluck! so im stuck with whatever's in my closet that would fit me now... and that would mean preggy clothes! raaaahhh!!!

although i was able to do the trim-off before, down from 163lbs to 130lbs in 3months back in 2008, but i guess that kind of fat is easier to lose than a pregnancy-accumulated one... hehehe my day 1 will really really start tomorrow.... expect my next posts to be related to my weight-loss effort in the next days. wish me luck!!! :D
